Rum Pineapple Dessert

Posted: Jul 27, 2011 |Comments: 0 |

This isn't one of my natural/healthy recipes so I will come up with a modification of this and make another post. To be honest recipes are just ideas for me. Most recipes spur the creativity and then I modify as needed and typically create something totally different from the original recipe. That is always the fun part of cooking, and you never know what might come out of my kitchen!

There is an abundance of fresh pineapple and rum in Belize so this is a quick and fun dessert to make for friends that drop by. This works best if you can use fresh pineapple and other fresh fruits.  

Fried Rum Pineapple (serves 4)

Ingredients
1 whole pineapple
2 TBS dark rum (or try coconut rum)
1 TBS Sunflower oil

  • Cut one large pineapple into small bite size pieces
  • Place the pineapple in a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat with oil (if you choose you can use butter)
  • Cook till pineapple turns golden brown
  • Turn off heat and poor rum over the pineapple
  • Let it mix with the pineapple juice in the frying pan
  • Place the pineapple pieces in serving dishes
  • Pour remaining juice from the pan over pineapple pieces

You can serve this with homemade vanilla ice-cream or combined with other tropical fruits. If you really wanted a super sweet dessert drizzle some melted chocolate over the pineapple pieces right before you serve to your guests. (now that is dangerous).

There are many variations that could be developed from this recipe. One in particular that I am thinking of trying is using coconut milk instead of oil or butter and also fresh coconut pieces. Some other variations might be to sprinkle cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger or any of your other favorite spices.

It's the presentation that is important also so don't forget the fresh flowers, other fruits or use some of the outside of the pineapple to decorate your serving plates. I always like the look of the pineapple greens. You can be creative using those as a decorative touch.

Now I never want to be wasteful. I might have bought a bottle of rum just for this dessert so to use the rest of the rum maybe you could enjoy a tropical drink with your dessert.

    Fruit is naturally sweet and delicious and summertime fruit is especially refreshing. Slice fresh berries and sweeten with Splenda Granulated instead of using sweetened frozen berries or sweetening with sugar. Not only will you get ice cream made with healthy, fresh ingredients, but you and your family can have a lot of fun creating your very own signature flavors. Add one cup of the hot milk to the eggs while constantly whisking the mixture. This “tempers” the yolks so that the hot milk doesn’t cook them.

    Delicious espresso chocolate brownie paired with espresso chocolate pudding. A miracle happens when you bake this. All the liquid sinks to the bottom and forms a creamy pudding. The batter rises to the top and forms a cake like brownie. Yum!

    I've always enjoyed eating pudding and I thought of making one myself (for the very first time). But I wanted to make a no bake pudding. So I decided on making a frozen one and I tried it out and it came out so good! I can feel the taste right now as I'm writing this blog!! So sharing with all of you, the recipe to a "Coconut Pudding". It'll just take an hour.
